Lingnan: Beauty Beyond Borders | The flowering season of the #Kapok trees in #Guangzhou usually falls between October and December, known as the "romantic pink autumn" of the city. In the following spring, the fiery red Hero Flower and the Kapok take the stage and bloom. They blossom in front of the Grand Buddha Monastery on the west side of Beijing Road Pedestrian Street. With a gentle breeze, the Kapok flowers dance gracefully, resembling elegant pink fairies, complementing the ancient temple and creating a unique charm. Many passersby and tourists stop to take photos. Some locals say, "It's rare to see the beautiful chorisia speciosa and #Kapok blooming at the same time."

广州的异木棉开花时间通常集中在每年10月至12月之间，被誉为羊城的“秋日粉色浪漫”。到了次年春天，就是火红火红的英雄花——红棉花登场绽放。在北京路商业步行街西侧的大佛寺门口，盛放开花。微风吹拂下，异木棉花翩翩起舞，就像一个个婀娜多姿的粉色仙子，与古寺交相辉映，别有一番韵味。不少路过的市民游客纷纷驻足打卡拍摄。有街坊称：“美丽异木棉与红棉同期盛放，实属难得一见。”
